Sdprsme Court In Philadelphia Seals
JOhnHon,s DOOtn,


Nothing but the board of pardons can
intervene now between Samuel johnson,
the murderer of Farmer John Sharpless,
and the gallows. The supreme court in
Philadelphia Monday affirmed the judR-
ment of the Delaware county court and
jury which found him guilty. Judge
sterrett's opinion accompanying the de-
cision was very long, and disposed of
each OF the IL assignments Of error
urged by the prisoners counsel as
grounds for reversal.
In commenting upon Judge Clayton's
charge to the jury the opinion says /:
Throughout the whole charge, which
contains full, clear and accurate expo.
sltlon of the lay applicable to the case,
the learned judge appears to have been
especially careful to impress upon the
minds Of the jury the fact that the burden
OF establishing the prisoners guilt be-
yond a reasonable doubt was on the com.
monwealth, and that the question at issue
was exclusively for their determination
under all the evidence before them"

Wilmington. Thursday, Mar 24,loSi
rhs Isouse Elec,ion NH.

The paaDage by the House of bill
ordering special election next Novem-
Der is at least step forward, even IL, as
we fear, it will not prove to be really
practical measure. 1t is hardly possible
contingency that at a special election
sufficient vote can be obtained to make
majority as ascertained by the highest
vote Of the last six years, which was that
of 1882.
We have already expressed our opinion
emphatioally that proper vote can only
be brought out at a general election. The
argument that this day cannot be legally
selected seems so little entitled TO respect,
In the view we take of the matter, that it
is difficult to hear il with patience.
Nevertheless, we are aware that there
were members honest in their professions
but impressed with doubt of the legality
Of naming the day of q general election /;
however, even If the present effort be
abortiye the confession involved in the
passage of any bill is something gained,
and 1t is in this aspect that we speak of it
as a step forward.
There is an opportunity for the Senate
TO do wise and sensible thing by either
passing the Martin bill or amending the
House bill By substitution of the Martin
JriE no. this case we believe the
.se would accept the amendment.
!, nnatever may be the outcome of the
present effort of legislation, it is quite
certain that before the nomination Of
candidates for the Legislature in 1885
there will be such manifestation of pub,
lie opinion as will bring about very
definite result upon the general subject

Nine-tenths OF the stores
only dabble in linen. They
buy at dabblers' prices, and
even then not wisely. How
can theya They don't know
what to look for and what to
leave. There are good linens
and bad; cotton-and-linen is
sold for linen. Buying linen
without knowledge, either to
sell or to use, is a lottery. You
can depend on getting good,
pure linen here. You may
make a poor choice for a spe-
cial purpose, but you'll not
pay too much for the material.
If you'll ask you can get linen

going astray. Glad to have

Up TO date Mr.. Ware has introduced
over 70 bills in the House, and Mr..
some So in the Senate. The
mere statement of this fact obviously
carries with II one sufficient reason why
this city of 55, OOOpeople should no longer
be limited TO one member in each body.
No one man can do justice to SO much
work. Here are over 100 measures
claiming the attention of each of Will
mington representatives-Mr. Ware in
the House and Mr.. McWhorter in the
Senate-and there are more to come.
Each Of these men is expected by those
interested-and there are some Whining
tonians specially interested in nineteen
twentieths of these bills-to engineer
their measure through the body in which
he sits. Consider the magnitude of such
a commission. Put yourself in his
place, with over one hundred different
subjects of legislation to watch study,
analyze, keep in mind and look after.
Necessarily, in such number of bills,
there must be many calculated 10 arouse
opposition. The member having them in
charge is expected to give audience to the
opponents as well as to the supporters Of
any particular measure. He must try to
make time to hear both sides and all
sides and, having done this, to sit II
judgment on their merits and demsri
and make up his mind whether to sup
port or advocate them. At the same tint
he must, of course, take his part in al
the other legislative BUSINESS of hi
house. Those who may imagine thu
public work of such a member to b
measured by five or six hours per day
and three or four days per week Of actua
Legislative session at Dover are very wide
of the mark. All his time is mort
gagged by his public duties. Al
tie sstate capital, wnen the assembly i
not in session his waking hours are takei
up with committee work or III giving g..
dience to. constituents, who are fightinI
or pushing some one of these hundre
bills. Between weekly sessions his legit
lative business follows him to his home
goes with him where he goes and stay
with him where he stays. Hardly an
hour of the day or night is he secure fror
some person or some delegation VIII
wishes to see him about that bill 20
have in the Legislature, which provides

amount of work would, al this stage G
